Flying Wild Hog, the studio behind the splendid Shadow Warrior reboot, tonight announced a brand new game of their own: Evil West. It’s about vampire-hunting cowboys armed with your traditional wild west guns and, ah, giant mechanical fists full of Swiss army murderknife attachments. Here, check out the announcment trailer’s rude ‘tude.
Fullbright, the developers behind Gone Home and Tacoma, have announced their new game, Open Roads. It’s a first-person adventure game about a mother and daughter on a road trip searching for some long lost family secrets. The trailer shows a beautiful hand-drawn art style for the characters, mixed with 3D animation for some of the environments around them. Take a look for yourself below.
Sometimes a relationship can be a man, a woman and their overenthusiatic talking book. At least, that’s what I assume the trailer for It Takes Two is teaching us. It’s a new co-op game from Hazelight, developers of A Way Out, where you play as a couple who’ve been magically turned into dolls. It looks very lovely, and it comes out on March 26th next year.
“Is that Vin Diesel?” I asked, watching the announcement trailer for Ark 2. “Have they copied Vin Diesel’s face?” Then he grunted. “IS THAT A REAL VIN DIESEL GRUNT?” Then he spoke. IT IS VIN DIESEL. Yes, Riddick/Groot/Dom stars in the sequel to Studio Wildcard’s dinosaur-hunting sandbox survival game, which is… what is this even going to be? They also announced an Ark animated series with a voice cast including Karl Urban, David Tennant, Michelle Yeoh, Elliot Page, and Russell Crowe. What is going on.
I can hardly believe my eyes, but BioWare just revealed a teaser trailer for the next Mass Effect at The Game Awards – and Liara was in it. Blue space-wife Liara from the Mass effect trilogy was in the new Mass Effect teaser, exploring a snowy planet and picking up a discarded piece of N7 armour. What does this mean for Mass Effect 5? Will it be set in the Milky Way after all? Is Andromeda done? Who knows! Watch the trailer below and come be excited with me.
After turning the fantasy part of Warhammer into a fine Left 4 Dead-style cooperative shooter in Vermintide, developers Fatshark are now turning to the grim dark future of humanity. Today they released the first “gameplay trailer” for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, which really does look like Vermintide but in 40K – and that’s no bad thing. Come see for yourself in the trailer below.
We already knew that Rebirth Island was the new map arriving in Call Of Duty: Warzone on December 16th, and now in a new trailer we get a proper look at it. That’s not all, though, because COD Warzone and Black Ops Cold War‘s first season introduces a new game mode, a new zombies event, new weapons, operators and a bunch more.
This Game Awards seems to be the spiritual successor show now. First the Left 4 Dead devs show us their new zombiethon, Back 4 Blood, and now some former Dead Space devs of Dead Space have revealed something rather familiar as well. The Callisto Protocol is a new survival horror from developers Striking Distance Studios, a team of folks who’ve worked on the likes of Dead Space and Call Of Duty. It’s coming out 2022, and it looks: freaky.
Amplitude’s endless and often-changing Endless series will return with Endless Dungeon, the developers announced today. This is one from the sci-fi strand, and they describe it as a “rogue-lite tactical action game”. So… does the confusing name mean Endless Dungeon is a sequel to 2014’s Dungeon Of The Endless? It’s complicated, Amplitude say. For now, watch the announcement trailer.
Here we go again. BioWare have revealed yet another tiny trailer for Dragon Age 4, but unlike the many before it, this time there’s actually some solid info to take from it. We get a look at a new setting (which absolutely looks like Tevinter to me), an evil pouty Solas, and better yet, it sounds like everyone’s best dwarven bud Varric is back – literally, it’s him narrating the trailer. Listen to his delightful storytelling for yourself in the trailer below.
